    Vjun. "Va-june"? Or maybe just "june" with a silent V?

    Ve-jun, or ve-zhun. I pronounce with the soft "sh" sound-ve-tzun.

    Following the example of "Duck-sun" in KOTOR 2, I pronounce it as though it rhymed with bludgeon.

    Chandrila.

    Rogue Squadron 64 pronounced it just "Chan-drill-ah", while Andor goes with "Shan-drill-ah" with some emphasis on the first syllable. Is the Andor pronunciation used consistently throughout the new canon? For that matter, was the Rogue Squadron pronunciation used consistently in Legends?

    I believe it was pronounced "Shan-drill-ah" in one episode of Rebels, as well. It was during a talk between Ezra and Mon Mothma, but I don't remember what episode it was.

    Nyna Calixte is an interesting one.

    Née-na, or N-I-na. Nee-nah I think is simplest.

    Calixte I guess could be Call-ixt or Call-ixt-ay.

    I always went with the latter but the former seems to make more sense.

    Saleucami is pronounced 2 different ways that I am aware of.

    Tyber Zann in Forces of Corruption calls it Sal-u-cam-ee.

    Adi Gallia in TCW calls it Sa-luke-a-my

    Just looking at it, I'm thinking pet-o-thel...which unfortunately sounds similar to "pedophile".

    Nom Anor. Should be pretty straightforward, "nom a-nore", right? No! I just heard EckhartsLadder pronounce it "nome a-nore".
